  1. It's about 3.5 kgs according to my analogue scales
  2. I will put on the scales and see what happens. My wife says the scales are always wrong as she never weighs that much
  3. I've definitely under-engineered the wooden element. I will be braver for mk2
  4. Test fit. This thing is heavy. I might need a weigh bridge..
  5. Neck shaped and headstock plate attached. Need to design a trust rod cover. I’ll probably make this out of Aluminium…
  6. Finally bonded the back and started rounding over the edges. Going to go through the grits, currently at 180
  7. A little more progress made this week. Just looking at it and it scratches
  8. Thanks, the greensand was too damp and molten aluminium shot up, hit the ceiling and ran off the top of my PPE and ran down my neck and burnt my back Back to the build - here is a closer shot. Wish I were braver with my cutting, lot's of filing to do
  9. Hi all, It's been a very long time since I've done anything post-worthy (and this is a stretch) Originally, I built a furnace with the aspiration of casting aluminium guitars however after a small accident and a skin graft, I've been banned from playing with anything too dangerous. So here is the concept, Aluminium sides/top with a wooden centre block. Possible with some etchings too. Apologises for the bad pictures and my terrible lawn More to follow in the coming weeks
  10. thanks Daniel, it's not completely different to what I did. I probably need more practice and a heck more patience
  11. I've just changed my strings on my classical and I really regret doing it. Firstly I kept b*llsing it up Secondly, now they are on they are talking "forever" to stretch in Thirdly, they sould really tinny why did I do it I just wanted to share my pain...sorry
  12. The Flaminco is a little smaller than a classical. Both are fingerstyle instruments, one is just a little more punchy(smaller body tends to give this responce). Peace,Rich Thanks Rich, I've just found this link also http://www.musicfolk.com/docs/Features/Fea...calFlamenco.htm I think the Flamenco is more what I am after
  13. I've been looking for a new nylon strung acoustic. I always assumed that a classical guitar was the same as a Flamenco/Spanish but on some of the websites I've been looking on, they sell both Flamenco and Classicals. Does anyone know that the main differences between types of guitars? many thanks.. Steve
